What’s great about Friday’s? Well, among many things, you can reflect on the past week, and what you’ve learned. Since last Friday I’ve learned, tequila and bourbon make for a great evening, but a terrible morning, that NYC weather cannot make up it’s mind (as it snows once again out the window), that one of the recipes I created for next week needs a complete overhaul, and that this banana mug cake is the best breakfast option so far out of mug cakes. I’ve learned a lot.
This mug cake is so tasty, but the ingredients quickly pile up so get a big mug ready. Or mix in a small bowl and dump into a mug.
Discovering the chocolate chips throughout as you enjoy is the best part. Have a great Superbowl Weekend!!!
